Me, sitting on my grandpa's lap.
Mmmmmm...Brach's Chocolate Covered Cherries! Those memories go way back! When I was a little girl, oh about 5 years old my Grandpa would lead me into his bedroom. There he would whisper to me, "Now don't tell the other kids" and he would open his closet door and reach up on the shelf. There he would retrieve that beautiful box. The box of Brach's Chocolate Covered Cherries!! He would open the box and let me get just one. He would put the box back in the closet and watch me eat that candy. I thought I was his very favorite grandchild. I could easily have been too! He only had over 60 other grandchildren. Yeah, I am sure I was his favorite.
A few years ago I found an old Brach's Chocolate Covered Cherries box (empty, of course) at a thrift store. I display it every Christmas. Also, every Christmas I buy at least one box of Chocolate Covered Cherries in memory of Grandpa.
